Guardiola: “I am ashamed of how we have treated blacks in the last 400 years”

Pep Guardiola has attended the media virtually after the 3-0 victory against Arsenal. The Catalan coach has confirmed that Eric García is “aware” but that they will do “more tests”.

Black Lives Matter. I am ashamed of how whites have treated blacks for the past 400 years. Perhaps the new generations will understand better that we are all human beings. Every gesture is important to humanity. You have to support them day by day.

Eric Garcia's injury. We are a little worried. He is aware, but tonight he will be tested more because blows to the head are always dangerous. We will do everything we can to make Eric feel good.

Eric García's party. He is very smart at directing the defensive line. He trains very well and understands everything. This season, every time he has played he has done very well. He is a footballer who does not make mistakes and is always focused. When we play against such fast and agile forwards we need center-backs who understand the team's movements well. Today was the best option to play against Laporte.

Party rating. We were lucky to score a goal at the end of the first part. After the second goal it has already been easier. We played a great game against a good team.

New format for the Champions League. My only plan is to prepare for the match against Burnley and arrive in the best possible physical condition against Real Madrid. The only reality is that we have won the first leg and we have to play the second leg against the best team in Europe in this competition. If we qualify for the quarters, it will be a pleasure to go to Portugal.

Possible injuries. We have to choose the alignments for the next game well to avoid injuries. We have already seen it with Arsenal, they have had two injured.
